All Members of the Gentoo Foundation who were Members on the recording date
|

(2009-01-11) may vote, you can check if you're such a member on the official

list of members [2].

If you are a current Gentoo Developer, you may vote using dev.gentoo.org and
|
15 |
votify script. To do that, ssh to the dev.gentoo.org machine and issue the
|
16 |
following commands:
|
17 |
|
18 |
$ votify --new trustees2009
|
19 |
A file named .ballot-trustees2009 will be created in your home directory. Edit it and rank the candidates.
|
20 |
$ votify --verify trustees2009
|
21 |
It will verify that your edited ballot file is not broken.
|
22 |
$ votify --submit trustees2009
|
23 |
This will rename the ballot file to .ballot-trustees2009-submitted. If you
|
24 |
change your mind before voting period ends, just remove that file and redo
|
25 |
everything from scratch.
|
26 |
|
27 |
If you are not a Gentoo Developer and thus don't have access to dev.gentoo.org, you
|
28 |
have to mail your GPG-signed ballot file to Election Officials at elections@g.o.
